- Description
-
The crown prince and princess Maximilian and Marie dined on the Säuling meadow, later Queen Marie climbed the Säuling with her sons Ludwig and Otto. The tour above Neuschwanstein Castle requires surefootedness and a head for heights, especially on the partially rope-secured descent between the summit and Säulinghaus hut. Around the Pilgerschrofen you reach the valley Pöllattal again and can enjoy the view of Neuschwanstein Castle on the Marys bridge.
